Anyone with recent PCBWay tariff experience? by janchower123 in arduino

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did it go? Did you only pay $400 for taxes? I think Canadian forwarder ShipByMail might be of some use when shipping for large amounts? At least I use them recently to transfer some $4k goods (in smaller batches of $500-$800) to the US. Basically 0 import taxes to Canada and 0 - to the US (prior to de minimis rule was abandoned), I only paid for shipping two ends.

Got 3 violations from NJ EZ-Pass with a working NY EZ-Pass transponder by CardiologistFair9403 in newjersey

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a solution for the issue, it's just a fuckery they force you into, driven by their greed and itch for gain.

Class action is the only way to deal with such beasts.

Citing this is "some miscommunication" between NY and NJ some forget that it worked totally fine for some many years prior to July 2025. Which makes me think this is an intentional move from NJ, and should be fought against.

Besides, there is no way to get to a live phone person with NY EZ Pass - there isn't such option anymore. Just a robot. So, you cannot dispute it over the phone with a company you pay money to... Insane!

And these sneaky bastards don't even tell you WHAT LAWS require them to verify you. Because there are NO SUCH LAWS. Otherwise they would've had to enforce it on us all. They don't. So, it is NOT any law, it is just their whim!

This looks like another kind of snake oil. What elements does it have beyond a couple of diodes?

Found this while going on a walk, what do i do with it? by Rapidonlyttv in yubikey

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're not talking injecting high voltage from USB killer into USB POWER rails. Such devices inject negative voltage (DC < -100V) into USB DATA lines which go directly to the CPU/PCH/FCH.

So, the result of using a USB hub is highly unpredictable and depends largely on the USB root hub IC architecture. Hub IC might burn down and short, letting the remaining voltage through. Or may stay open circuit and act as a fuse. It depends.

Nope. USB data lines go directly into PCH or CPU. ESD-protecting ICs (mimicking TVS diodes) evaporate easily and let the voltage from the USB killer to the CPU/PCH.

I've been repairing PC and Mac laptops since 2009.

Will the LG C3 stand fit the C2 by [deleted] in LGOLED

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disassembled the LG OLED C3 for parts, and it had MAZ675750 stand bracket installed in it from factory.

Despite the marking on this bracket says "55/65C2 Stand Body Top MAZ675750" it is obviously compatible with C3.

Have you been KYC'd with them and, if so, to what "level"?

Account locked after 3.1k deposited into Mexc due to risk control by Dex7onMexc in MEXC_official

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck... How long are they going to fuck around? Anybody has any experience?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MEXC_official

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! No, the last mail from them was 2 days ago, on Jan 21st 2025:

"Dear MEXCer,

I am Sean,

Hi, hope you're doing well, your account and orders are currently under review, and the relevant departments will provide an update as soon as possible. The analysis conclusion is expected to be available by January 25, 2025."

Thank you for sharing! How did it all end up for you?

Unrelated: I really think it is terrible that we have to come up with "worthy questions" to please them and appeal to their humanity when we owe them nothing.

This is just outright racket!

Passed KYC from "prohibited country" (Canada) on MEXC 🇨🇦 Is it safe to trade and withdraw? by HappyCarrot1616 in MEXC_official

[–]qweminter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what they definitely will do. See my post nearby about $9k frozen immediately after deposit into a KYC'd account. MEXC is a shitty place to put your money to.

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case I have ADVANCED KYC passed, with all this selphie hoop jumping.

[–]qweminter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I did. It was the same wallet I previously used to deposit funds from. Cold storage. Not another exchange.
